Buchan - please don't cc me on mails that you send to the list. I hate
seeing double when scanning my inbox.

I was running hobbitd on a different port, with bbproxy sending to the local hobbitd as well as the one on the main display:

        ENVFILE /usr/lib/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg
        CMD hobbitd --pidfile=$BBSERVERLOGS/hobbitd.pid --restart=$BBTMP/hobbitd.chk --chec
kpoint-file=$BBTMP/hobbitd.chk --checkpoint-interval=600 --log=$BBSERVERLOGS/hobbitd.log --
admin-senders=127.0.0.1,$BBSERVERIP --listen=0.0.0.0:1985


[bbproxy]
        ENVFILE /usr/lib/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg
        CMD $BBHOME/bin/bbproxy --hobbitd --bbdisplay=127.0.0.1:1985,10.10.9.32:1984 --report=$MACHINE.bbproxy --pidfile=$BBSERVERLOGS/bbproxy.pid


But then bbgen on the proxy complains:
hobbitd status-board not available

And the display on the proxy has no hosts at all (just pages, all-green).
You need to tell bbgen that hobbitd is on port 1985. In
hobbitserver.cfg, change BBPORT to 1985 and BBDISP to 127.0.0.1.
